About Me

CURRENT MISSION

let's breathe and let's be curious

ABOUT ME

it's really not easy to write a short paragraph about me. and i don't like to write down a CV now.. but let me think, what should i say - i am studying in graz since some years, i am working for a street-magazine, i work for a free radio station, i am playing the keyboard in several bands, sometimes i am deejaying, i work with interesting people, i like people, i like music (in an active and in a passive way), i like talking seriously, i like talking nonsense, i like breathing, i like living.
i am matthias/matthew/mathieu and i appreciate the diversity of our planet :)

PHILOSOPHY

why do I live my life? it's just because my parents maybe loved each other a longer time ago. and i have to try the best to make the best out of it.
